Descripción del empleo

Software Engineer - Robotics & Autonomous Systems

Scale's Robotics business unit is dedicated to solving the data bottleneck in Physical AI across Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, and Computer Vision. In this role, you'll be a key contributor building production systems for robotics data collection, model training pipelines, and evaluation infrastructure. You'll have the opportunity to own critical parts of our robotics platform, work directly with cutting‑edge robotics and AV customers, and shape the future of embodied AI systems.

You Will:

• Own and architect large‑scale data processing pipelines for robotics and autonomous vehicle datasets
• Build ML training and fine‑tuning pipelines using Scale's robotics data
• Work across backend (Python, Node.js, C++) and frontend (React, TypeScript) stacks to build end‑to‑end solutions
• Develop tools and real‑time systems for robotics data collection, teleoperation, model evaluation, data curation, and data annotation
• Interact directly with robotics and AV stakeholders to understand their technical needs and drive product development
• Design comprehensive monitoring and evaluation frameworks for robotics models and data quality
• Solve complex, late‑stage industry challenges in concurrent and real‑time robotic systems, with strict attention to timing constraints and data integrity. This often involves deep investigation, reviewing academic papers, and direct collaboration with robotics vendors
• Collaborate with ML engineers and researchers to bring robotics research into production
• Deliver features at high velocity while maintaining system reliability and performance

Ideally, You Have:

• At least 6 years of high‑proficiency software engineering experience, with a strong background in complex systems and the ability to independently research, analyze, and unblock hard technical problems
• Strong programming skills in Python and TypeScript/Node.js for production systems
• Experience with React and modern frontend development for 3D interfaces
• Concurrent and real‑time systems, with special attention to timing constraints
• Understanding of distributed systems, workflow orchestration, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Temporal, Kubernetes, Docker)
• Experience with databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL) and data processing at large scale
• Track record of working with cross‑functional teams including ML engineers, researchers, and customers
• Strong communication skills and ability to operate with high autonomy

Nice to Haves:

• Experience with C++
• Experience with robotics hardware platforms (robotic arms, mobile robots, perception systems) with a focus on time synchronization
• Background in computer vision, SLAM, motion planning, or imitation learning
• Familiarity with autonomous vehicle data, lidar technologies, or 3D data processing
• Experience with ML model deployment and serving frameworks
• Knowledge of teleoperation systems (ALOHA, UMI, hand tracking) or VR interfaces
• Experience with workflow orchestration systems (Temporal, Airflow)
• Published research or open‑source contributions in robotics or autonomous systems
